The Spider-Man franchise seems like a lot of fun, but I just can’t get into it. OMD/BND ruined it for me in 616 and I don’t like where USM dropped me off in the story. His romance with Gwen in the Ultimate U just brings out all sorts of fanboy paranoia in me. Shame, since Spider-Man is still one of my faves.
